A criminal network involved in international cocaine trafficking has been dismantled after a joint operation between Italian and Belgian authorities, with support Europol-it is.
Fourteen people suspected as members of this network have been arrested during this operation.
The investigation, which has lasted several months, has led to the identification and tracking of a criminal group transporting cocaine from South America to Europe, using ports to Belgium and Italy.
The group used sophisticated methods to hide drugs and avoid detection by customs and police authorities.
During raids and raids conducted in several locations, considerable amounts of cocaine, cash in cash, luxury vehicles, and coded communication equipment have been seized.
Europol has played an important role in co-ordinating information between the Belgian and Italian authorities, providing real-time analytical and operational support during the intervention day.
The operation represents another significant blow to drug trafficking networks operating in the European Union and demonstrates the effectiveness of international co-operation in the fight against organised crime. /Periscope/
